Good evening,
Brought my first nas synology DS218+ 2 bay with 2 x 4tb Ironwolf drives last March totally just for Plex to be honest. I love it but now need more storage. At the time price was important and would it work well in my living room with remote access whilst at work(nightshifts where I can watch plex). Thats why I went with the 2 bay as didn't want to have made a costly mistake.
It does work well I have fibre to cabinet internet so not the best but have no problems streaming remotely. I'm worried about noise with going to a 4 bay synology and the DS920+. Currently set up via ethernet to my router in the living room. Checking your videos I'm unsure should I wait to see if there's a new 4 bay is on the horizon or as your video says go for it? My plan is the DS920+ with 4x 4tb WD red drives as a slower spin rate?
What do you think?
Thanks
Keith
